The OTCQX® Best Market is for established, investor-focused U.S. and international companies. To qualify for the OTCQX market, companies must meet high financial standards, follow best practice corporate governance, demonstrate compliance with U.S. securities laws, be current in their disclosure, and have a professional third-party sponsor introduction. Penny stocks, shells and companies in bankruptcy cannot qualify for OTCQX. The companies found on OTCQX are distinguished by the integrity of their operations and diligence with which they convey their qualifications.

GMG has now qualified to trade on the OTCQX® Best Market, having been upgraded from the Pink® market. The two lower-tier markets for OTC trading in the U.S. are the OTCQB® Venture Market and the OTC Pink® market. This upgrade will provide increased transparency in trading for GMG's U.S. investors through its higher levels of reporting and governance.

GMG's Managing Director and CEO, Craig Nicol, commented: "As part of our capital markets access plans, we are delighted to broaden the Company's exposure in the U.S. market through this upgrade. It is a major step toward our corporate development in North America."

GMG's Chairman and Non-Executive Director, Jack Perkowski, commented: "Increasing GMG's presence in the U.S. is of strategic importance for funding our development and growth initiatives. Enabling U.S. investors with increased involvement will expand the Company's future capital opportunities."
